USA: In 2013, protests erupted in Ukraine after the government decided to halt policy aimed at joining the EU. This decision resulted in a coup and the overthrow of the country's then-President Viktor Yanukovych, who was then forced to flee to Russia. More than 100 people lost their lives in clashes between protesters and security personnel. The breakaway regions of Donetsk and Luhansk refused to recognise the new central government that took office after what they perceived to be a coup, prompting the Ukrainian government to launch a military operation against them in April 2014. "That election was arguably dodgy, but no question that there was indeed a coup," Musk tweeted.
